Chapter 24: 024, [What does cultivation feel like]

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lu Xun was a bit disappointed that his second elder sister did not look like a

cute girl.

Instead, she had a cold demeanor akin to the vibes of a big sister, seeming to clash a bit with her cute name, Gu Xiaoman.

He had a feeling she might be a formidable character who would ruthlessly slaughter gamers in later stages.

Lu Xun glanced at the Qi Consumption Technique in his hands, feeling touched. Indeed, this gift was fitting for someone just stepping into the world of cultivation, but to him… it wasn’t that useful.

All he needed was to accumulate experience points and level up. This Qi

Consumption Technique, densely annotated, was more suitable for Ji Li.

However, this was the goodwill from his second elder sister. Lu Xun couldn’t bear to ask for another gifted item… although he really wanted to.

—But he could have the nerve to ask from Mao Nanbei.

The second elder sister has given hers, shouldn’t you, who also are an elder sister, give something as well?

Being stared at by him, Mao Nanbei felt goosebumps and finally gritted her teeth, tossing him a storage ring.

“[You have obtained a yellow storage ring. Would you like to put it on? Wearing it will increase your backpack space by +30.]”

This was something Lu Xun could actually use, saving him a lot of trouble daily.

“Ah, it’s not that I’m thrifty, your cultivation base is too low, a magic artifact suits you better, using a spiritual artifact would be too burdensome for now, just use this,” Mao Nanbei said.

What she said indeed made sense. In Heavenly Dust, the equipment didn’t have a level limitation, but if your level was too low, putting on the equipment wouldn’t unleash its potential, making it useless.

Standing aside, Ji Li was clearly envious, but she was more genuinely happy for

Lu Xun.

Previously she had been worried that Lu Xun’s poor qualifications would make him bullied in the Demon Sect, but it seemed like she didn’t need to worry about it anymore.

The second elder sister seemed not wanting to chitchat much, waving her hand to signal that everyone could leave.

On the way back, Lu Xun ruminated, “Second elder sister doesn’t seem to like talking. ”

More precisely, she hadn’t said a word, which was a bit weird.

Could she be a mute?

However, he was pleased to have received two gifts tonight, a smile unbiddenly surfaced on his face.

Lu Xun glanced at Ji Li, under the dim light of fireflies, found her smiling wider than himself.

Seeing her silly look, Lu Xun reached out his hand and flicked her head without any reason.

“Why did you flick me?” Ji Li covered her forehead, her eyes wide open.

“The Young Elder flicks if he wants to flick, why ask so many questions?” Lu Xun said.

He wasn’t going to admit he felt that her soft peach-like head was addictive to touch, compelling him to feel it more.

Yet, right after the words left his lips, his own forehead was also flicked. The one who did it was Mao Nanbei.

“So, it’s alright for me to flick you, right?” Mao Nanbei was grinning broadly, standing up for Ji Li, a look of ‘I’m the big sister’ on her face.

Lu Xun was speechless. He secretly fantasized about the day when his cultivation base would greatly increase and he could lay Mao NanBei across his knees, ruffling her hair and cat ears with one hand and spank her cute little behind with the other!

Nevertheless, this little interlude lightened the mood and the journey back was filled with laughter.

The usually quiet mountains felt more lively, and even the nearby fireflies seemed to fly more enthusiastically.
